| json_api:tableupsertview | json_api | tableupsertview | Upserting rows | An upsert is an insert or update operation.

The above example will: Update the row with id of 1 to set both title and description to the new values Update the row with id of 2 to set title to the new value - description will be left unchanged Insert a new row with id of 3 and both title and description set to the new values Similar to /-/insert , a row key with an object can be used instead of a rows array to upsert a single row. If successful, this will return a 200 status code and a {"ok": true} response body. Add "return": true to the request body to return full copies of the affected rows after they have been inserted or updated: { "rows": [ { "id": 1, "title": "Updated title for 1", "description": "Updated descri… | ["JSON API", "The JSON write API"] | [] |
